User blog:Dante-Must-Die-Mode/What The Heaven And Hell?: Devil May Cry By The Weeknd

I Know This is kinda out of the topic, and a little bit stupid, but hear me out people. Because when I Heard the song entitled "Devil May Cry" by The Weeknd, at first I was kinda surprise for a second why this song was existed even though it is copyrwrited the name "Devil May Cry" by CAPCOM, and how is it related that song to the main series. So without further or though, here's my question, "WHAT THE HEAVEN AND HELL DOES THIS SONG RELATED TO THE DEVIL MAY CRY SERIES?!"

So, in this topic, I'm going to explain about this song depending on what I've understand and how is it related to the main series. Remember that this is only my theory and there's no evidence regarding that this song was indeed explained about the Devil May Cry Games though to the fact that this song was only released for the official soundtrack of the movie, "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire". And also, remove all The Hunger Games related things alright? This is Devil May Cry, so your argument is invalid.

Music And Lyrics
Okay, here's the song "Devil May Cry" by The Weeknd and it's lyrics. Then try to analize it if this song was indeed relate to the main series or any kinds of games that is related to the Devil May Cry Franchise. Enjoy by the way. :)



Lyrics:

It won't be in vain To swallow all your pain And learn to love what burns And gather courage to return

Faces in the crowd Faces in the crowd will smile again And the devil may cry The devil may cry at the end of the night

Faces in the crowd Faces in the crowd will smile again And the devil may cry The devil may cry at the end of the night

The light will shine through the rain And heaven will hear them call your name And home will feel like home again Corruption will fill your brain

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">Okay, first of all, I did watch The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, but since this movie has no relate whatsoever to the Devil May Cry Series, let's just leave those things.

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">Now, based on my theory, I realize that this song was kinda related to the game itself. Mainly because of it's lyrics. Now, if I could decode each of it's lyrics into a storyline, I should say that this story was set in an un-ordered sequence. And this is my theory:

'''<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">It won't be in vain <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">To swallow all your pain <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">And learn to love what burns <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">And gather courage to return '''

Briefly tells about the Sword of Sparda and the two amulets)

'''<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">Faces in the crowd <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">Faces in the crowd will smile again <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">And the devil may cry <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">The devil may cry at the end of the night '''

The Devil May Cry at the end of the night. To be honest, I don't have any kind of theory whatsoever so let's move on...)

'''<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">The light will shine through the rain <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">And heaven will hear them call your name <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">And home will feel like home again <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:DroidSansRegular,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.7470016479492px;line-height:19.7681884765625px;">Corruption will fill your brain '''

With Lady puts out his hand and says, "The rain already stopped." Second, at " And heaven will hear them call your name ", well, it kinda has no remiders on how this sentence relate to this so... uhh... yeah, sorry about that but I guess my theory is about their Mother, Eva, told his son Dante about how she loved him from DmC: Devil May Cry (Man, talk about favoritism xD). On the third sentence, at " And home will feel like home again " is all about Vergil from Devil May Cry 3 when he told Dante to leave him alone because "...this place[Temen-ni-gru] is my father's home." at the Temen-ni-gru after he was lost from Dante, leaving a swiped Yamato sword on the right hand of Dante. And at the last sentence, " Corruption will fill your brain ", is the ending of DMC3 in which Vergil was been defeated by Mundus and corruted his mind and he becames one of the demon armies of Mundus)

But, there's no actual evidence, even The Weeknd himself, that this song was related to the DMC Franchise. But, at any rate, this is my theory that this was related to the series.

Sorry for my long post, here's the chibi version of Devil May Cry cast, I hope you loke my blog. :D
